There’s a story that was retold by Nate Burleson six years ago that accurately depicted the reputation and culture of the Detroit Lions franchise. As Burleson tells it, when he came into the team’s locker room for the first time in 2010 as an incoming free agent, an unnamed cornerback pulled him aside and told…

Former Tennessee Vols quarterback Hendon Hooker made the Detroit Lions’ initial 53-man roster this week. Hooker, a third round selection by the Lions in the 2023 NFL Draft, missed all of his rookie season while recovering from the torn ACL he suffered at Tennessee in 2022. The former Vol returned to the field this summer
It’s the totally unexpected things that can sometimes be the coolest things. Stuff like Jake Fromm locking down a job with the Lions despite every conceivable thing being against the possibility of it happening. Hendon Hooker takes a bad hit against the Giants and the Lions say they’re looking to add a quarterback right before

One of the biggest themes of the offseason for the Detroit Lions was that they had a receiver problem. That problem has been theoretically solved at this point, but it sounds like it could have been solved a bit earlier. Lions GM Brad Holmes met with the media bright and early Thursday morning and said
The Detroit Lions announced a few expected roster moves on Thursday morning, along with one unexpected one. As expected, John Cominsky has been placed on injured reserve after suffering a torn MCL a month ago in training camp practice. Because he spent a day on the Lions’ 53-man roster, he is eligible to return to…
Detroit Lions GM Brad Holmes left no doubt about what he thinks of the squad he and his front office team and coaching staff have assembled. Holmes laid it out there in his Thursday morning press conference. Asked about his expectations for the coming season, Holmes quickly answered, “My expectations? Win the Super Bowl.” Not
By now, everyone knows how aggressive the Detroit Lions and head coach Dan Campbell are during games. Look no further than their fourth-down decisions during the NFC Championship Game against the San Francisco 49ers back in January. But we didn’t always have a true understanding of why they are so aggressive. At least until now
The Detroit Lions left the preseason without the X-receiver they’d been looking for all summer long. Despite plenty of opportunities, none of the receivers auditioning for the job justified their spot by the time roster-cutdowns needed to happen. Shortly after the deadline for 53-man rosters to be set, however, the Lions had not only extended…
Former Lions linebacker Mathieu Betts is heading back to the Canadian Football League after spending the offseason with Detroit. Betts is signing with the BC Lions for the remaining seven games of the CFL season after being let go by the Lions and going unclaimed on waivers. Betts played for BC in 2022 and 2023.
Allen Robinson II is officially back in the NFC North. The Detroit Lions announced Wednesday that they have signed Robinson. The veteran wide receiver will be joining Detroit’s practice squad. Robinson, 31, is a former second-round draft pick and was named a Pro Bowler in 2015. He has posted three separate seasons of 1,000 yards
Man it feels like this one has been coming for a long, long time. The Detroit Lions have signed Allen Robinson to their practice squad. Every time Robinson has been a free agent in his career, he has constantly been linked to the Lions. Now in 2024 at the age of 31, Robinson finally returns
Detroit’s practice squad now includes: LB Mitchell Agude C Kingsley Eguakun QB Jake Fromm RB Jermar Jefferson T Jamarco Jones WR Tom Kennedy TE James Mitchell S C.J. Moore DL Pat O’Connor WR Tim Patrick DL Kyle Peko WR Allen Robinson DL Chris Smith DL Isaac Ukwu TE Shane Zylstra Robinson, 31, is a former
Here we go. The Detroit Lions are all set for the 2024 season. We’ve seen their initial 53-man roster already and now we know who’s going to be on their 16-man practice squad. Here’s the group. WR Tim Patrick: Probably safe to say that Patrick won’t be on the Lions practice squad for too long.
Scott Daly was one of the veteran roster cuts by the Detroit Lions ahead of Tuesday’s 53-man roster deadline. It didn’t take long for Daly to find his next team. Daly, the Lions regular long snapper for the past three seasons, quickly signed with the rival Chicago Bears. The 30-year-old Daly is a Chicago-area native
While none of the players the Detroit Lions waived were claimed off the waiver wire, one is signing with another team’s practice squad. According to Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune, long snapper Scott Daly is signing to the Chicago Bears’ practice squad, and is expected to be their initial long snapper.

Like all NFL teams, the Detroit Lions get to create a 16-person practice squad as soon as the initial waiver claims from the roster cutdowns are processed at 12 p.m ET on Wednesday, August 28th. Of those 16 players, six can be veterans who have at least four years of NFL service. Those would be
The NFL’s waiver claim process was completed at 12 p.m. ET on August 28th, a day after the initial 53-man roster cutdowns completed. This is a chance for teams to claim other players with less than four years of NFL service who were waived in the past days. The Detroit Lions landed one player on
A good exercise for any analyst is to review your assessments and predictions, exploring what you got right and what you got wrong. With the Detroit Lions establishing their initial 53-man (technically they’re at 52 players) roster on Tuesday, I’m presented with an opportunity to reflect back on my prediction of the 2024 roster to…
